Thermography
Digital infrared Thermographic imaging is unique in its capability to show physiological changes and metabolic processes through your body's thermal patterns. Generally, problem areas in your body show higher temperatures due to increased blood flow and increased metabolic activity resulting from your body trying to correct itself. Thermography can indicate early stage breast cancer and many physiological problems long before standard testing would indicate an abnormality. Testing is harmless and non-invasive. It involves no radiation, is FDA approved, and takes only 15-45 minutes. Health SCAN can help you quickly and accurately get to the cause of your condition so that proper treatment can be rendered immediately. Learn more about Thermography ...

Medical Acupuncture
Acupuncture stimulates your body to use its own natural resources to heal and maintain health. Recent studies have shown that acupuncture does much more than just resolve pain. It affects functions including respiratory, digestive, urinary, reproductive and nervous system, hormones, circulation, antibody production, allergic responses, and muscle tone. Laboratory analysis of Cerebral Spinal Fluid (the fluid that circulates your spinal cord and brain) following acupuncture shows an increase in the body's release of endorphins, serotonin, melatonin and other neuro-chemicals that effectively treat anxiety, depression, sleep, pain, and numerous imbalances regulated by the brain
Classical Acupuncture uses extremely fine sterile disposable needles to stimulate neural pathways at hundreds of points all over your body. Needle-free stimulation such as massage, electrical and laser are also used, along with other Traditional Chinese Medicine therapies such as Medical Qigong, GuaSha and Moxibustion.

Naturopathic Medicine
Naturopathic Medicine is a drug-free 'do-no-harm' holistic approach to health and treating illness. Naturopathic Doctors are highly educated primary care providers who integrate standard medical diagnostics with a broad range of natural therapies. Your ND works in partnership with other regulated health care providers to ensure that you receive the most comprehensive and effective care possible
The primary goal of naturopathic medicine is to address the root cause of your illness. NDs strive to find the "why" as well as the "what" of an illness or disease. That means your ND takes your physical, mental, spiritual & emotional dimensions as a whole into account when developing a treatment plan for you. NDs alleviate acute and chronic conditions as well as removing the underlying causes. The goal is to improve and maintain your overall health. Learn more about Naturopathic Medicine ...

Colon Hydrotherapy
Colon hydrotherapy, or colonics, uses filtered water to flush impacted fecal waste, dead cellular tissue, harmful bacteria, intestinal parasites and worms, gas and accumulated mucus from the colon. This toxic material can re-enter and circulate via your bloodstream making you feel tired, weak or ill. Impacted materials also impair your colon's ability to assimilate minerals and bacteria-produced vitamins. A build-up of material on the colon wall can inhibit muscular action causing sluggish bowel movements and constipation. By relieving toxic build-up, colon hydrotherapy can dramatically improve bowel function. It allows beneficial bacteria to proliferate, and promotes mucus formation as a protective mechanism to "disable" toxic organisms. ColonHydrotherapy is is a safe, gentle yet powerful way to cleanse your body and make all body systems and organs more efficient. Learn more about Colon Hydrotherapy ...

A surgical face-lift can make your face look 10 years younger but it can't give you a natural, healthy glow. Acupuncture Facial Rejuvenation can! It is a non-surgical facelift that safely stimulates your nervous system, skin, and brain to increase blood circulation to your face, neutralize free radicals, and decrease inflammation, aging and tissue damage. Nutrients and collagen are attracted to the area to repair and regenerate skin. Wrinkles are reduced as skin regenerates.
Results are often noticed after the first treatment. Full treatment takes time, but the effects are lasting. A balanced diet and healthy living helps to support your renewed youthful glow
Acupuncture Facial Rejuvenation is not advised for those with certain health conditions. Please check with our professionals to see if it is right for you. Learn more about Acupuncture Facial Rejuvenation and FAQ's ...
Infra Red Sauna
Weight loss ~ Relief from pain and Arthritis ~ Detoxification for cancer treatment and skin disorders ~ Improved circulation and cardiovascular health
Sauna Ray toxin-free saunas are a drug-free method of slowly, effectively and safely helping you lose weight. Our infra red sauna uses ceramic heaters which penetrate your body very efficiently to the outer two inches only. This triggers your sweat glands to start functioning before your core body temperature goes up. You sweat profusely without feeling hot
Toxins you accumulate from everyday life are stored in your fat cells. Whatever your body can't easily eliminate via the liver or the kidneys, it sends off to the fat cells for future elimination via sweat. Regular sauna sessions will expunge toxins known to cause cancer and other diseases. These toxins include lead, mercury, plastics and pthalates, dioxin, pesticides, and heavy metals. Sauna Ray's deep-heating pure-ceramic heaters are proven to mobilize lactic acid from muscles to prevent cramping. It makes connective tissue more supple and flexible, and thus relieves chronic muscular and joint pain. A session in the sauna doubles the flow of blood to all the tissues of your body.
